ADJUSTING THE SUB-BASE ALIGNMENT (PLUNGE BASE) Applications using a template guide require the bit to be centered in the guide. This, in turn, requires the center hole in the sub-base to be in line with the collet of the motor unit. Your model has an adjustable sub- base that has been aligned at the factory. The fixed-base router comes with the large hole. Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attach- ments or accessories. Be sure the switch is in the "OFF" position. ROUTER TOUPIES CONTORNEADORES Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: • lead from lead-based paints, • crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and • arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber (CCA). Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. • Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals. Use of this tool can generate and/or disburse dust, which may cause serious and perma- nent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body. Wear appropriate hearing protection during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. The label on your tool may include the following symbols. Do not operate your tool on a current on which the voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C. only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool. Turn off and unplug the tool before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories. Be sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.. ® SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. The term “power tool” in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. To reduce the risk of injury, user must read instruction manual. GENERAL SAFETY RULES 1) Work area safety a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2) Electrical safety a) Grounded tools must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check with a qualifi ed elec- trician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the tools should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user. Applicable only to Class I (grounded) tools. b) Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fi t in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fi t fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electri- cian to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system. Applicable only to Class II (double insulated) tools. c) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, rang- es, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. d) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. e) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug. f) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffi x W-A or W following the cord type designation. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet 120V 0-25 26-50 51-100 101-150 Ampere Rating Gauge of wire in AWG units From 0 to 6 amps 18 16 16 14 “ 6 to 10 amps 18 16 14 12 “ 10 to 12 amps 16 16 14 12 “ 12 to 16 amps 14 12 Not recommended 3) Personal safety a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, al- cohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in mov- ing parts. c) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become haz- ardous when used on another tool. 4) Power tool use and care a) Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control. b) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The cor- rect power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. c) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. d) Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, chang- ing accessories, or storing power tools.

With the motor switch (C) Fig. 15 in the “ON” position, insert the motor unit into the base align- ing the lower pin (B) with the groove in the base. 3. Rotate the motor unit into the base CLOCKWISE until the motor switch (A) Fig. 16 is directly above the knob handle (B). 4. Connect the motor unit cord to the outlet in handle (C) Fig. 16. 5. Continue rotating the motor unit into the base until upper guide pins set rigidly into base. 6. Tighten the clamp screw firmly. ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT 1. Loosen the clamp screw (A) Fig. 17. 2. Hold the base (E) and turn the motor unit (F) Fig. 17 counter-clockwise until the tip of the bit is above the bottom of the base. 3. Set the router on a flat surface. 4. Turn the motor unit (F) Fig. 17 clockwise until bit touches the wood surface. 5. Tighten the clamp screw (A) Fig. 17. 6. Rotate the depth adjusting ring (B) Fig. 17 until the zero-line (C) is opposite the index line (D) on the housing. 7. Loosen the clamp screw (A) Fig. 17. 8. Tip the router so that the bit is clear of the wood surface. Turn the motor unit (F) Fig. 17 clock- wise until the index line (D) on the motor housing reaches the desired depth indicated on the ring. 9. Tighten the clamp screw (A) Fig. 17 firmly. NOTE: Setting the index line to 1/4" on the ring means the cutting edge of the bit is exposed 1/4" below the base. CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE Before connecting tool to power source, check to see that the switch is in the "OFF" position. Also, check the power circuit to see that it is the same as that shown on specification plate of the tool. STARTING AND STOPPING THE MOTOR Before starting the tool, clear the work area of all foreign objects. Also keep firm grip on tool to resist starting torque. To start the tool, move the rocker switch (A) Fig. 18 to the “ON” or “1” position. To stop the tool, move the rocker switch to the “OFF” or “O” position. To avoid personal injury and/or damage to finished work, always allow the power unit to come to a COMPLETE STOP before putting the tool down. STARTING AND STOPPING THE MOTOR - “D” HANDLE Before starting the tool, clear the work area of all foreign objects. Also keep a firm grip on the tool to resist starting torque. USING THE TOOL Check to see that the motor unit power cord (C) Fig. 16 is plugged into the handle, and that the switch (A) on the motor is set to the “ON” position. The starting and stopping of the motor is then controlled by pressing and releasing the trigger switch (D) Fig. 16 in the handle of the base. To allow the tool to run without continually pressing the trigger, press the trigger (D) into the handle and engage the switch locking button (E) on the side of the handle. While holding the button in, slowly release the trigger. To stop the tool, squeeze the trigger into the handle and release. To avoid injury and/or damage to finished work, always allow motor to come to a COMPLETE STOP before putting the tool down. Always be sure the work is rigidly clamped or otherwise secured before making a cut. When routing the edges, hold the router firmly down and against the work with both guiding knobs. Since the cutter rotates clockwise (when viewing router from top), the router should be moved from left to right as you stand facing the work. When working on the inside of a template, move the router in a clockwise direction. When working on the outside of a template, move the router in a counter- clockwise direction. Avoid “Climb-Cutting” (cutting in direction opposite that shown in Fig. 20). “Climb-Cutting” increases the chance for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When “Climb-Cutting” is required (backing around a corner), exercise extreme caution to maintain control of router. The speed and depth of cut will depend largely on the workpiece. Keep the cutting pressure constant but do not crowd the router so the motor speed slows excessively. On exceptionally hard woods or problem materials, more than one pass at various settings may be necessary to get the desired depth of cut. LUBRICATION This tool has been lubricated with a suffi cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. No further lubrication is necessary. BRUSH INSPECTION (If applicable) For your continued safety and electrical protection, brush inspection and replacement on this tool should ONLY be performed by a Porter-Cable Factory Service Center or a Porter-Cable Authorized Warranty Service Center. At approximately 100 hours of use, take or send your tool to your nearest Porter-Cable Factory Service Center or a Porter-Cable Authorized Warranty Service Center to be thoroughly cleaned and inspected. Have worn parts replaced and lubricated with fresh lubricant. Have new brushes installed, and test the tool for performance. Any loss of power before the above maintenance check may indicate the need for immediate servicing of your tool. DO NOT CONTINUE TO OPERATE TOOL UNDER THIS CONDITION. If proper operating voltage is pres- ent, return your tool to the service station for immediate service.

FAILURE TO START Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers in the line. REMOVING THE MOTOR 1. Remove the clamp screw (A) Fig. 5, flat washer (B), lock washer (C), and clamp-locking nut (A) Fig. 6. 2. Insert the hex wrench (A) Fig. 8 to contact the locking plate. Tap lightly to release and remove the locking plate. 3. Slide the motor out of the base. 4. Reattach the clamp screw, lock washer, flat washer, locking plate and clamp locking nut to the base and tighten lightly. ADJUSTING THE PLUNGE BASE 1. Loosen the depth rod locking knob (A) Fig. 9, and the depth indicator knob (D), allowing the depth rod (E) to contact one of the turret stops (B). Normally the deepest desired cut is set with the depth rod resting on the shortest turret stop (A) Fig. 10. The other two fixed stops (B) Fig. 10 provide reduced cutting depths of 1/4" and 1/2" respectively. You can adjust the three stops (C) Fig. 10 to any desired height. You can utilize any combination of fixed and/or adjustable stops to achieve the desired depths required for a particular job. 2. Release the plunge mechanism by pulling the locking lever (A) Fig. 9 to the left. Lower the plunge mechanism until the router bit touches the work surface. Release the lever and push it to the right to lock the mechanism in this position. 3. Tighten the depth-rod locking knob. 4. Position the depth indicator (A) Fig. 11 at the “0” position and tighten the knob. 5. Loosen depth-rod locking knob (A) Fig 9. Raise the indicator until it aligns with the gradua- tion representing the desired depth of plunge. (The example in Fig. 12 shows setting for 1" plunge.) 6. Turn the lower travel-limiting nut (A) Fig. 12 until it is approximately 1/4" above the top of the the plunge housing. While holding the lower nut, turn the upper nut (B) until it “jams” against the lower nut (A) Fig. 12. Jam the travel-limiting nuts together to prevent movement (caused by vibration) which could prevent full bit retraction. Set the travel limiting nuts so that bit can be retracted into the base of the router, clear of the workpiece. SERVICE REPLACEMENT PARTS Use only identical replacement parts.

FOR SAFE OPERATION SEE THE OWNERS MANUAL. Model 690LRVS Heavy Duty Variable Speed Router PORTER-CABLE, JACKSON, TENNESSEE 38305 U.S.A. MADE IN MEXICO TYPE 1 SER. NO. WARNING AVERTISSEMENT À Titre Préventif, lire le guide. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY, USER MUST READ AND UNDERSTAND INSTRUCTION MANUAL. CONSERVER CES DIRECTIVES! Lire toutes les directives. Tout manquement aux directives suivantes pose des risques de choc électrique, d’incendie et/ou de blessure grave. Le terme « outil électrique » dans tous les avertissements ci-après se rapporte à votre outil électrique à alimentation sur secteur (avec fi l) ou par piles (sans fi l). Pour réduire le risque de dommages, l'utilisateur doit lire le manuel d'instruction. RÈGLES GÉNÉRALES SUR LA SÉCURITÉ 1) Sécurité du lieu de travail a) Tenir la zone de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux encombrés ou sombres sont propices aux accidents. b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un milieu défl agrant, soit en présen- ce de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières infl ammables. Les outils électriques produisent des étincelles qui peuvent enfl ammer la poussière ou les vapeurs. c) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité pendant l’utilisation d’un outil élec- trique. Une distraction pourrait vous en faire perdre la maîtrise. 2) Sécurité en matière d’électricité a) Les outils mis à la terre doivent être branchés dans une prise correctement installée et mise à la terre tel que l’indiquent les codes et règlements en vigueur. Ne jamais retirer la broche de mise à la terre ou modifi er la prise en aucune façon. Ne pas utiliser de fi che d’adaptation. Consulter un électricien qualifi é s’il y a un doute en ce qui concerne la mise à la terre de la prise. En cas de défaillance électrique ou de bris de l’outil, la mise à la terre procure un chemin de faible résistance au courant afi n de réduire les risques de choc électrique. Cette protection ne s’applique qu’aux outils de classe I (mis à la terre). b) Les outils à double isolation sont dotés d’une fi che polarisée (une lame de contact est plus large que l’autre). Elle ne se branchera que d’une seule façon dans une prise de courant polarisée. Si la fi che ne s’insère pas totalement dans la prise de courant, l’inverser. Si elle ne s’insère toujours pas dans la prise, demander à un électricien compétent d’installer une fi che polarisée. Ne pas remplacer la fi che. La double isola- tion élimine la nécessité d’utiliser un cordon d’alimentation muni d’une fi che à trois fi ls avec mise à la terre et un bloc d’alimentation avec mise à la terre. Seuls les outils de classe II (à double isolation) sont munis d’une telle protection. c) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux, des radiateurs, des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est plus élevé si votre corps est mis à la terre. d) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau dans un outil électrique augmente le risque de choc électrique. e) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour transporter, tirer ou débrancher un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants ou des pièces mobiles. Les cordons endommagés ou enchevêtrés aug- mentent les risques de choc électrique. Utiliser uniquement une rallonge à 3 fi ls pourvue d’une fi che de mise à la terre à 3 lames et une prise à 3 fentes correspondant à la fi che. f) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge convenant à une telle utilisation. Si la rallonge sera utilisée à l’extérieur, elle doit être estampillée d’un W-A ou d’un W suivi de la classifi cation de la rallonge. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduit les risques de choc électrique. Lorsque qu’une rallonge électrique est utilisée, s’assurer d’en utiliser une de calibre suffi samment élevé pour assurer le transport du courant nécessaire au fonctionnement de l’appareil. Un cordon de calibre inférieur cau- sera une chute de tension de ligne et donc une perte de puissance et une surchauffe. Le ta- bleau suivant indique le calibre approprié à utiliser selon la longueur du cordon et l’intensité nominale de la plaque signalétique. En cas de doute, utiliser le calibre suivant le plus gros. Plus le numéro de calibre est petit, plus le cordon est lourd. Calibre de fil minimum recommandé pour les rallonges Volts Longueur totale de la rallonge 120V 0-25 pi 26-50 pi 51-100 pi 101-150 pi 0-7.6 m 7.6 m - 15.2 m 15.2 m - 30.5 m 30.5 m - 45.7 m Amperes Calibre de fil dans des unités d’A.W.G. De 0 à 6 ampères 18 16 16 14 “ 6 a 10 ampères 18 16 14 12 “ 10 a 12 ampères 16 16 14 12 “ 12 a 16 ampères 14 12 not recommended 3) Sécurité personnelle a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un outil électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous l’in- fl uence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un moment d’inattention, durant l’uti- lisation d’un outil électrique, peut se solder par des blessures graves. b) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de bijoux. Garder les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces mobiles. Les vête- ments amples, bijoux ou cheveux longs pourraient s’enchevêtrer dans les pièces mobiles. c) Éviter un démarrage accidentel. S’assurer que l’interrupteur se trouve à la position d’arrêt avant de brancher l’outil. Transporter un outil électrique alors que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est à la position de mar- che risque de provoquer un accident. d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé standard avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé standard ou une clé de réglage attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil peut provoquer des blessu- res corporelles. e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet de mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situations imprévues.

ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LA MÈCHE DE LA TOUPIE est dégagée de l’ouvrage avant de mettre le moteur en marche. 9. MAINTENEZ UNE PRISE FERME sur la toupie lors de la mise en marche pour résister au couple de démarrage. 10. GARDEZ LES MAINS à l’écart du couteau lorsque le moteur tourne afi n de prévenir les bles- sures. 11. GARDEZ LA PRESSION DE COUPE CONSTANTE. Ne surchargez pas le moteur. 12. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LE MOTEUR EST ARRÊTÉ COMPLÈTEMENT avant de déposer l’outil entre les opérations. 13. NE TOUCHEZ jamais les mèches de toupie après usage, car elles peuvent être extrêmement chaudes. 14. NE SERREZ JAMAIS L’ÉCROU DE DOUILLE SANS LA MÈCHE INSÉRÉE. Ceci déformera la douille, ne permettant plus l’insertion de la mèche. 15. NE PAS utiliser de fers de défonceuse d’un diamètre supérieur à 21/2 po à des vitesses su- périeures à 13 000 tr/min. Avec la vitesse réglée à 13 000 tr/min ou moins, on peut utiliser des fers jusqu’à 31/2 po de diamètre. 16. GARDEZ TOUJOURS LE CHASSE-COPEAUX PROPRE et en place pour protection contre la projection de copeaux. 17. ÉVITEZ LA « COUPE À CONTRE-SENS » (Voir la section “ À L’AIDE DE COUTEAU” en ce manuel). La coupe à contre-sens augmente les possibilités de perte de contrôle et peut causer des blessures. 18. PAS LA PRISE DE MAIN LE ROUTEUR DANS UNE A L’ENVERS OU POSITION HORIZON- TALE. Le moteur peut séparer de la base si pas convenablement attaché selon les instructions. f) Entretenir les outils électriques. Vérifi er si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou coincées, si des pièces sont brisées ou présentent toute autre condition susceptible de nuire au bon fonctionnement de l’outil électrique. En cas de dommage, faire réparer l’outil électrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents sont causés par des outils électriques mal entretenus. g) S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de coupe bien entretenus et affûtés sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles à contrôler. h) Utiliser un outil électrique, ses accessoires, mèches, etc., conformément aux présen- tes directives et suivant la manière prévue pour ce type particulier d’outil électrique, en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail à effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil électrique pour toute opération autre que celle pour laquelle il a été conçu est dange- reuse. 5) Réparation a) Faire réparer l’outil électrique par un réparateur professionnel en n’utilisant que des pièces de rechange identiques. Cela permettra de maintenir une utilisation sécuritaire de l’outil électrique. Certaines poussières produites par les activités de ponçage, sciage, meu- lage, perçage et autres activités de construction peuvent contenir des produits chimiques pou- vant causer le cancer, des anomalies congénitales ou d’autres problèmes liés aux fonctions reproductrices. Voici quelques exemples de ces produits chimiques : • le plomb contenu dans les peintures à base de plomb; • la silice cristalline de la brique, du ciment et d’autres produits de maçonnerie; et • l’arsenic et le chrome provenant du bois traité chimiquement. Les risques reliés à l’exposition à ces poussières varient selon la fréquence à laquelle l’utilisateur travaille avec ce type de matériaux. Pour réduire votre exposition à ces produits chimiques : travailler dans un endroit bien ventilé et porter un équipement de sécurité approuvé comme un masque anti- poussières conçu spécialement pour fi ltrer les particules microscopiques. Éviter le contact prolongé avec les poussières produites par les activités de ponçage, sciage, meulage, perçage et autres activités de construction. Porter des vêtements de pro- tection et laver les parties du corps exposées avec une solution d’eau et de savon. Le fait de laisser la poussière pénétrer dans la bouche et les yeux ou de la laisser reposer sur la peau, peut promouvoir l’absorption de produits chimiques nocifs. L’utilisation de cet outil peut produire et/ou propulser des poussières qui pour- raient causer des problèmes respiratoires graves et permanents, ou d’autres problèmes médicaux. Toujours porter un appareil respiratoire approuvé par la NIOSH/OSHA pour se protéger de la pous- sière. Diriger les particules loin du visage et du corps. Porter une protection auditive appropriée pour utiliser l’appareil. Dans certaines conditions et selon la durée d’utilisation, le bruit émis par ce produit peut contribuer à une perte auditive. SYMBOLES L’étiquette apposée sur votre outil peut comprendre les symboles suivants : V ...........volts A ...................Ampères Hz .........hertz W ..................watts min .......minutes or a.c. ..Courant alternatif .. Courant continu no..................Vitesse à vide .......Assemblage de classe II ...........Borne de terre /min….révolutions par minute RÉGLAGE DE LA PROFONDEUR DE COUPE 1. Ouvrez la bride (A) Fig. 3. 2. Tout en tenant la base (E), tournez le moteur (F) Fig. 3 en SENS ANTI-HORAIRE jusqu’à ce que l’extrémité de la mèche soit au-dessus de la surface inférieure de la base. 3. Posez la toupie sur une surface plate en bois. 4. Tournez le moteur (F) Fig. 3 en SENS HORAIRE jusqu’à ce que la mèche vienne en contact avec la surface en bois. RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ SPÉCIFIQUE 1. TENEZ L’OUTIL PAR SES SURFACES DE PRISE ISOLÉES pendant toute operation où l’outil de coupe pourralt venir en contact avec un câblage dissimulé ou avec son propre cordon. En cas de contact avec un conducteur sous tension, les pièces métalliques à découvert de l’outil transmettraient un choc électrique à l’utilisateur. 2. L’USAGE SERRE OU L’AUTRE FAÇON PRATIQUE pour obtenir et soutenir la pièce de fab- rication à une plate-forme stable. L’avoir du travail à la main ou contre votre corps est instable et peut mener à la perte de contrôle. 3. DÉBRANCHEZ TOUJOURS LA TOUPIE DE LA PRISE DE COURANT avant d’effectuer des réglages ou de changer les mèches. 4. ASSUREZ-VOUS TOUJOURS QUE L’ÉCROU DE DOUILLE EST SERRÉ SOLIDEMENT pour empêcher la mèche de glisser durant l’usage. 5. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE L’OUVRAGE EST TENU SOLIDEMENT en place et est exempt d’obstructions. 6. EN COUPANT À TRAVERS, ASSUREZ-VOUS QU’IL Y A UN ÉCARTEMENT SOUS L’OUVRAGE pour la mèche de la toupie. 7. ASSUREZ-VOUS QUE LE CORDON est libre et qu’il ne s’accrochera pas durant l’opération de détourage. 1. Desserrez les vis de montage de la sous-base tout juste assez pour permettre à la sous-base de se déplacer sur la base. 2. Desserrez la vis de la pince (C) Fig. 4 et ajustez le moteur de manière à ce que l’écrou de la douille engage le trou central de la sous-base. Laissez la sous-base se centrer elle-même sur l’écrou de la douille. Serrez la vis de la pince. 3. Serrez solidement les vis de montage de la sous-base. Arrêter et débrancher l’outil avant d’effectuer un réglage ou de retirer ou d’installer une pièce ou un accessoire. S’assurer que l’interrupteur est en position d’arrêt. Les applications utilisant un guide de calibre nécessitent le centrage de la mèche dans le guide. À son tour, ceci nécessite que le trou central de la sous-base soit aligné sur la douille du moteur. Votre modèle possède une sous-base réglable qui a été alignée à l’usine. Le couteau vient avec le grand trou (Fig. 4). AJUSTEMENT DE L’ALIGNEMENT DE LA SOUS-BASE 5. Fermez la bride (A) Fig. 3. 6. Faites tourner l’anneau de réglage de profondeur (B) Fig. 3 jusqu’à ce que la ligne zéro (C) soit face à la ligne de repère (D) sur le boîtier. 7. Ouvrez la bride (A) Fig. 3. 8. Inclinez la toupie de manière à ce que la mèche soit à l’écart de la surface du bois. Tournez le moteur (F) Fig. 3 en SENS HORAIRE jusqu’à ce que la ligne de repère (D) sur le carter du moteur atteigne la profondeur désirée indiquée sur l’anneau. 9. Fermez la bride (A) Fig. 3 fermement. REMARQUE : Le placement de la ligne de repère à 1/16 po sur l'anneau signifie que le bord de coupe de la mèche est exposé sur 1/16 po sous la base. DÉPOSE DU MOTEUR 1. Retirez la vis de la pince (A) Fig. 5, la rondelle plate (B), la rondelle d’arrêt (C) et l’écrou de blocage de la pince(A) Fig. 6. 2. Insérez la clé Allen (A) Fig. 7 pour la mettre en contact avec la plaque de blocage. Tapez légèrement pour relâcher et retirer la plaque de blocage. 3. Faites glisser le moteur hors de la base. 4. Réassemblez la vis de la pince, la rondelle d’arrêt, la rondelle plate, la plaque de blocage et l’écrou de blocage de la pince sur la base et serrez légèrement afin de prévenir leur perte. Assurez-vous que l’interrupteur est en position d’arrêt et que l’outil est débranché de la prise de courant afin d’éviter une mise en marche accidentelle du moteur qui pourrait provoquer des blessures corporelles. POSE DU MOTEUR (6931 Plunge Base) 1. Supportez la pince avec vos doigts (D) Fig. 5 et desserrez la vis de la pince du moteur d’environ (A) Fig 5 1/2-po, à l’aide d’une clé Allen (fournie). 2.

DEFINITIONS - SAFETY GUIDELINES indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury. indicates a potentially haz ard ous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or mod er ate injury. NOTICE used without the safety alert symbol indicates potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in property damage. To reduce the risk of injury, read the instruction manual. GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS Read all safety warnings and all instructions Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. 1) WORK AREA SAFETY a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock. 3) PERSONAL SAFETY a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust- related hazards. 4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. 5) SERVICE a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES • Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces because the cutter may contact its own cord. Cutting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator. • Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control. • Metal cutting with router: If using router for metal cutting, clean out tool often. Metal dust and chips often accumulate on interior surfaces and could create a risk of serious injury, electrical shock or death. • Never run the motor unit when it is not inserted in one of the router bases. The motor is not designed to be handheld. • Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. This will enable better control of the tool. • Maintain a firm grip with both hands on the tool to resist starting torque. Maintain a firm grip on the tool at all times while operating. • Keep hands away from cutting area above and below the base. Never reach under the workpiece for any reason. Keep the router base firmly in contact with the workpiece when cutting. • Never touch the bit immediately after use. It may be extremely hot. • Be sure that the motor has stopped completely before you lay the router down. If the bit is still spinning when the tool is laid down, it could cause injury or damage. • Be sure that the router bit is clear of the workpiece before starting the motor. If the bit is in contact with the workpiece when the motor starts, it could make the router jump, causing damage or injury. • Always follow the bit manufacturer’s speed recommendations as some bit designs require specific speeds for safety or performance. If you are unsure of the proper speed or are experiencing any type of problem, contact the bit manufacturer. • Do not use router bits with a diameter in excess of 2-1/8" (29 mm) in this tool. • Do not hand-hold the router in an upside-down or horizontal position. The motor can separate from the base if not properly attached according to the instructions. • Before starting the motor, check to see that the cord will not snag or impede the rout- ing operation. • Keep cutting pressure constant. Do not overload motor. • Provide clearance under workpiece for bit when through-cutting. • Tighten collet nut securely to prevent the bit from slipping. • Never tighten collet nut without a bit. • Always make sure the work surface is free from nails and other foreign objects. Cutting into a nail can cause the bit and the tool to jump. • Always keep chip shield (if included) clean and in place. • Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts. • An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. When using more than one extension to make up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets Ampere Rating Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet (meters) 120V 25 (7.6) 50 (15.2) 100 (30.5) 150 (45.7) 240V 50 (15.2) 100 (30.5) 200 (61.0) 300 (91.4) More Than Not More Than AWG 0 6 18 16 16 14 6 10 18 16 14 12 10 12 16 16 14 12 12 16 14 12 Not Recommended ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY EQUIPMENT: • ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3), • ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hearing protection, • NIOSH/OSHA/MSHA respiratory protection. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are: • lead from lead-based paints, • crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and • arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles. • Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmful chemicals. Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body. Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may contribute to hearing loss. • The label on your tool may include the following symbols. The symbols and their definitions are as follows V .....................volts A.........................amperes Hz ...................hertz W .......................watts min .................minutes or AC ............alternating current or DC .....direct current or AC/DC .....alternating or direct current ...................Class I Construction no .......................no load speed .......................(grounded) n .........................rated speed ...................Class II Construction .......................earthing terminal (double insulated) ........................safety alert symbol …/min ............per minute BPM ...................beats per minute IPM.................impacts per minute RPM ...................revolutions per minute SPM ...............strokes per minute sfpm ...................surface feet per minute SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS MOTOR Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking.

An accidental start-up can cause injury. Do not use router bits with a diameter in excess of 2-1/8" (29 mm) in this tool. GRIPPING LOCATIONS (FIG. 3, 16, 18) 1001 BASE and 6931 PLUNGE BASE: Grip both knob handles (GG) while operating. 6911 "D" Handle Base: Grip "D" Handle (MM) and knob handle (GG) while operating. The "D" Handle router base has two positions for the knob to accommodate right or left hand use. INSTALLING THE BIT (1001 BASE) Projectile hazard. Only use bits with shanks that match the installed collet. Smaller shank bits will not be secure and could become loose during operation. This tool is provided with two collets that accept a 1/4" (6.35 mm) or 1/2" (13 mm) shank bit. 1. To remove the motor unit from the base unit: (a) Open the clamp (A) Fig. 1. (b) While holding the base, turn the power unit COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until the lower pin (B) in the motor housing is disengaged from groove in base. (c) Lift the power unit free from the base unit. 2. Clean and insert the shank of the bit into the collet until the shank bottoms, then back it out approximately 1/16" (1.6 mm). 3. Lay the power unit on its side on a bench with the collet pointing AWAY from you. 4. Place one wrench on the flats of the chuck with the opposite end of the wrench resting on the bench to your left (Fig. 2). 5. Place the other wrench on the collet and tighten counter-clockwise. Tighten the collet nut securely to prevent the bit from slipping. 6. To remove the bit, reverse the procedure. Never tighten the collet without first installing a router bit in it. Tightening an empty collet, even by hand, can damage the collet. INSTALLING THE MOTOR (1001 BASE) 1. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 1 and set the power unit in the base unit. 2. Align the lower pin (B) Fig. 1 of the power unit with the groove in the base. 3. Rotate the power unit clockwise into the base until the upper guide pins are set in the groove of the base. 4. Close the clamp. ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (1001 BASE) 1. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 3. 2. Hold the base (E) and turn the power unit (F) Fig. 3 counter-clockwise until the tip of the bit is above the bottom of the base. 3. Set the tool on a flat surface. 4. Turn the power unit (F) Fig. 3 clockwise until the bit touches the work. 5. Close the clamp (A) Fig. 3. 6. Rotate the depth adjusting ring (C) Fig. 3 until the zero-line is opposite the index line (D) on the housing. 7. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 3. 8. Tip the router so that the bit is clear of the work surface. Turn the power unit (F) Fig. 3 clockwise until the index line (D) on the motor housing reaches the desired depth indicated on the ring. 9. Close the clamp (A) Fig. 3. NOTE: Setting the index line to 1/4" on the ring means the cutting edge of the bit is exposed 1/4" (6.4 mm) below the base. ADJUSTING THE SUBBASE ALIGNMENT (ALL ROUTERS) Applications using a template guide require the bit to be centered in the guide. This, in turn, requires the center hole in the subbase to be in line with the collet of the motor unit. Your model has an adjustable subbase that has been aligned at the factory. The fixed-base router comes with the large hole. 1. Loosen the subbase mounting screws (G) Fig. 4 just enough to allow the subbase (H) to move. 2. Open the clamp (A) Fig. 4 (or screw (EE) Fig. 17) and adjust the power unit so that the collet nut (I) Fig. 4 engages the center hole in the subbase (H). Allow the subbase to center itself on the collet nut. Close the clamp or tighten the clamp screw firmly. 3. Tighten the subbase mounting screws (G) Fig. 4 securely. INSTALLING THE MOTOR (6931 PLUNGE BASE) 1. Support the motor clamp (J) Fig. 5 and loosen the motor clamp screw (K) Fig. 5 approximately 1/2" (13 mm) with the hex wrench (supplied). 2. Insert the motor unit into the base with the switch positioned at the front of the left handle. Align the four pins (O) Fig. 7 (two of which are shown) in the motor case with the slots (P) Fig. 7 in the base. 3. Seat the motor in the base and tighten the motor clamp screw. REMOVING THE MOTOR (6931 PLUNGE BASE) 1. Remove the clamp screw (K) Fig. 5, flat washer, lock washer (L), and clamp-locking nut (M) Fig. 6. 2. Insert the hex wrench (Q) Fig. 8 to contact the locking plate (N) Fig. 6. Tap lightly to release and remove the locking plate. 3. Slide the motor out of the base. 4. Reattach the clamp screw, lock washer, flat washer, locking plate and clamp locking nut to the base and tighten lightly. ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (6931 PLUNGE BASE) 1. Loosen the depth rod locking knob (R) Fig. 9, and the depth indicator knob (U), allowing the depth rod (V) to contact one of the turret stops (S). Normally the deepest desired cut is set with the depth rod resting on the shortest turret stop (Y) Fig. 10. The other two fixed stops (X) Fig. 10 provide reduced cutting depths of 1/4" (6.4 mm) and 1/2" (13 mm) respectively. You can adjust the three stops (W) Fig. 10 to any desired height. You can utilize any combination of fixed and/or adjustable stops to achieve the desired depths required for a particular job. Do not change the turret stop while the router is running. This will place your hands too near the cutter head. 2. Release the plunge mechanism by pulling the locking lever (Z) Fig. 11A to the left. Lower the plunge mechanism until the router bit touches the work surface. Release the lever and push it to the right to lock the mechanism in this position. 3. Tighten the depth-rod locking knob. 4. Position the depth indicator (T) Fig. 9 at the "0" position and tighten the knob. 5. Loosen depth-rod locking knob (R) Fig 9. Raise the indicator until it aligns with the graduation representing the desired depth of plunge. (The example in Fig. 9 shows setting for 1" plunge.) 6. Turn the lower travel-limiting nut (AA) Fig. 12 until it is approximately 1/4" (6.4 mm) above the top of the the plunge housing. While holding the lower nut, turn the upper nut (BB) until it "jams" against the lower nut (AA) Fig. 12. Jam the travel-limiting nuts together to prevent movement (caused by vibration) which could prevent full bit retraction. Set the travel limiting nuts so that bit can be retracted into the base of the router, clear of the workpiece. DO NOT attempt to increase the plunge travel by readjusting the stop nut. Increasing the travel beyond 2-1/2" (63.5 mm) can cause the mechanism to jam. NEVER remove the stop nut. Motor can disengage resulting in loss of control. ADJUSTING THE PLUNGE LOCKING LEVER (6931 PLUNGE BASE) You can adjust the plunge-locking mechanism to reposition the lever (in the locked position), or to compensate for wear. 1. While holding the lever in the upright position, remove the retaining screw (CC) Fig. 13. Continue to hold the lever through the remaining steps. 2. Use an 1/8" hex wrench (not furnished) to turn the adjustment screw (DD) Fig. 14 counter- clockwise approximately 1/2 turn. 3. Move the lever to the desired locked position and tighten the adjustment screw. 4. Remove the hex wrench and replace the retaining screw.

Loosen the clamp screw (EE) Fig. 15 to set the power unit in the base unit. 2. Insert the motor unit into the base aligning the lower pin (B) with the groove in the base. 3. Rotate the motor unit into the base clockwise until the motor switch (FF) Fig. 16 is directly above the knob handle (GG). 4. Connect the motor unit cord to the outlet in handle (HH) Fig. 16. 5. Continue rotating the motor unit into the base until upper guide pins set rigidly into base. 6. Tighten the clamp screw firmly. ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF CUT (6911 BASE) 1. Loosen the clamp screw (EE) Fig. 17. 2. Hold the base (E) and turn the motor unit (F) Fig. 17 counter-clockwise until the tip of the bit is above the bottom of the base. 3. Set the router on a flat surface. 4. Turn the motor unit (F) Fig. 17 clockwise until bit touches the wood surface. 5. Tighten the clamp screw (EE) Fig. 17. 6. Rotate the depth adjusting ring (C) Fig. 17 until the zero-line (LL) is opposite the index line (D) on the housing. 7. Loosen the clamp screw (EE) Fig. 17. 8. Tip the router so that the bit is clear of the wood surface. Turn the motor unit (F) Fig. 17 clockwise until the index line (D) on the motor housing reaches the desired depth indicated on the ring. 9. Tighten the clamp screw (EE) Fig. 17 firmly. NOTE: Setting the index line to 1/4" on the ring means the cutting edge of the bit is exposed 1/4" (6.4 mm) below the base. CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE Before connecting motor unit power cord to power source or "D" handle (if applicable), ensure the toggle switch and the "D" handle trigger switch are in the OFF position. An accidental start-up can cause injury. STARTING AND STOPPING THE MOTOR Before starting the tool, clear the work area of all foreign objects. Check to see that the cord will not snag or impede the routing operation. Also keep firm grip on tool to resist starting torque. To avoid personal injury and/or damage to finished work, always allow the power unit to come to a COMPLETE STOP before putting the tool down. To start the tool, move the rocker switch (FF) Fig. 18 to the "ON" or "I" position. To stop the tool, move the rocker switch to the "OFF" or "O" position. STARTING AND STOPPING THE MOTOR - “D” HANDLE Check to see that the motor unit power cord (II) Fig. 16 is plugged into the handle, and that the switch (FF) on the motor is set to the “ON” position. The starting and stopping of the motor is then controlled by pressing and releasing the trigger switch (KK) Fig. 16 in the handle of the base. To allow the tool to run without continually pressing the trigger, press the trigger (KK) into the handle and engage the switch locking button (JJ) on the side of the handle. While holding the button in, slowly release the trigger. To stop the tool, squeeze the trigger into the handle and release. USING THE TOOL Do not operate tools rated “AC only” on a DC supply. Loss of speed control may result, causing tool damage and possible hazard to the operator. If the speed control ceases to operate, or is intermittent, stop using the tool immediately. Take it to a PORTER-CABLE factory or authorized service facility for repair. Avoid “Climb-Cutting” (cutting in direction opposite that shown in Fig. 11). “Climb- Cutting” increases the chance for loss of control resulting in possible injury. When “Climb-Cutting” is required (backing around a corner), exercise extreme caution to maintain control of router. Make smaller cuts and remove minimal material with each pass. DIRECTION OF FEED (FIG. 11) The direction of feed is very important when routing and can make the difference between a successful job and a ruined project. Figure 11 shows the proper direction of feed for some typical cuts. A general rule to follow is to move the router in a counterclockwise direction on an outside cut and a clockwise direction on an inside cut. Shape the outside edge of a piece of stock by following these steps: 1. Shape the end grain, left to right 2. Shape the straight grain side moving left to right 3. Cut the other end grain side 4. Finish the remaining straight grain edge 6931 PLUNGE BASE Turn the router on before plunging the cutter head into the workpiece.

Afin de réduire le risque de blessures, lire le mode d’emploi de l’outil. AVERTISSEMENTS DE SÉCURITÉ GÉNÉRAUX POUR LES OUTILS ÉLECTRIQUES Lire tous les avertissements de sécurité et les directives. Le non-respect des avertissements et des directives pourrait se solder par un choc électrique, un incendie et/ou une blessure grave. CONSERVER TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES LES DIRECTIVES POUR UN USAGE ULTÉRIEUR Le terme « outil électrique » cité dans les avertissements se rapporte à votre outil électrique à alimentation sur secteur (avec fil) ou par piles (sans fil). 1) SÉCURITÉ DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL a) Tenir l’aire de travail propre et bien éclairée. Les lieux encombrés ou sombres sont propices aux accidents. b) Ne pas faire fonctionner d’outils électriques dans un milieu déflagrant, tel qu’en présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inflammables. Les outils électriques produisent des étincelles qui pourraient enflammer la poussière ou les vapeurs. c) Éloigner les enfants et les personnes à proximité pendant l’utilisation d’un outil électrique. Une distraction pourrait en faire perdre la maîtrise à l’utilisateur. 2) SÉCURITÉ EN MATIÈRE D’ÉLECTRICITÉ a) Les fiches des outils électriques doivent correspondre à la prise. Ne jamais modifier la fiche d’aucune façon. Ne jamais utiliser de fiche d’adaptation avec un outil électrique mis à la terre. Le risque de choc électrique sera réduit par l’utilisation de fiches non modifiées correspondant à la prise. b) Éviter tout contact physique avec des surfaces mises à la terre comme des tuyaux, des radiateurs, des cuisinières et des réfrigérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique est plus élevé si votre corps est mis à la terre. c) Ne pas exposer les outils électriques à la pluie ou à l’humidité. La pénétration de l’eau dans un outil électrique augmente le risque de choc électrique. d) Ne pas utiliser le cordon de façon abusive. Ne jamais utiliser le cordon pour transporter, tirer ou débrancher un outil électrique. Tenir le cordon éloigné de la chaleur, de l’huile, des bords tranchants et des pièces mobiles. Les cordons endommagés ou enchevêtrés augmentent les risques de choc électrique. e) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge convenant à cette application. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur réduira les risques de choc électrique. f) S’il est impossible d’éviter l’utilisation d’un outil électrique dans un endroit humide, brancher l’outil dans une prise ou sur un circuit d’alimentation dotés d’un disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI). L’utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur réduit les risques de choc électrique. 3) SÉCURITÉ PERSONNELLE a) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un outil électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue ou sous l’influence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un simple moment d’inattention en utilisant un outil électrique peut entraîner des blessures corporelles graves. b) Utiliser des équipements de protection individuelle. Toujours porter une protection oculaire. L’utilisation d’équipements de protection comme un masque antipoussière, des chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protecteurs auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert réduira les risques de blessures corporelles. c) Empêcher les démarrages intempestifs. S’assurer que l’interrupteur se trouve à la position d’arrêt avant de relier l’outil à une source d’alimentation et/ou d’insérer un bloc-piles, de ramasser ou de transporter l’outil. Transporter un outil électrique alors que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est à la position de marche risque de provoquer un accident. d) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé ou une clé de réglage attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil électrique peut provoquer des blessures corporelles. e) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet de mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situations imprévues. f) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de bijoux. Garder les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces mobiles. Les vêtements amples, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent de rester coincés dans les pièces mobiles. g) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de dispositifs de dépoussiérage et de ramassage, s’assurer que ceux-ci sont bien raccordés et utilisés. L’utilisation d’un dispositif de dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers engendrés par les poussières. 4) UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN D’UN OUTIL ÉLECTRIQUE a) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil électrique approprié à l’application. L’outil électrique approprié effectuera un meilleur travail, de façon plus sûre et à la vitesse pour laquelle il a été conçu. b) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux. Tout outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux est dangereux et doit être réparé. c) Débrancher la fiche de la source d’alimentation et/ou du bloc-piles de l’outil électrique avant de faire tout réglage ou changement d’accessoire ou avant de ranger l’outil. Ces mesures préventives réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel de l’outil électrique. d) Ranger les outils électriques hors de la portée des enfants et ne permettre à aucune personne n’étant pas familière avec un outil électrique ou son mode d’emploi d’utiliser cet outil. Les outils électriques deviennent dangereux entre les mains d’utilisateurs inexpérimentés. e) Entretien des outils électriques. Vérifier si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou coincées, si des pièces sont brisées ou présentent toute autre condition susceptible de nuire au bon fonctionnement de l’outil électrique. En cas de dommage, faire réparer l’outil électrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents sont causés par des outils électriques mal entretenus. f) S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de coupe bien entretenus et affûtés sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles à maîtriser. g) Utiliser l’outil électrique, les accessoires, les forets, etc. conformément aux présentes directives en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail à effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil électrique pour toute opération autre que celle pour laquelle il a été conçu est dangereuse. 5) RÉPARATION a) Faire réparer l’outil électrique par un réparateur professionnel en n’utilisant que des pièces de rechange identiques. Cela permettra de maintenir une utilisation sécuritaire de l’outil électrique. RÈGLES DE SÉCURITÉ SPÉCIFIQUE • Tenir l’outil électrique par ses parties isolées, car l’organe de coupe pourrait entrer en contact avec son cordon. Couper un fil sous tension pourra mettre les parties métalliques exposées de l’outil électrique sous tension et électrocuter l’utilisateur. • Utilisez des serres de fixation ou un autre dispositif de fixation permettant de soutenir et de retenir la pièce sur une plate-forme stable. Tenir la pièce avec la main ou contre son corps n’est pas suffisamment stable et risque de provoquer une perte de maîtrise de l’outil. • Découpage du métal à la toupie : si la toupie sert à découper du métal, il faut la nettoyer souvent. La poussière de métal s’accumule souvent sur les surfaces intérieures et pourrait causer des blessures sérieuses, une électrocution ou la mort. • Ne jamais faire fonctionner le bloc moteur lorsqu’il n’est pas inséré dans l’une des bases de la toupie; le moteur n’est pas conçu pour être tenu à la main. • Maintenir les poignées sèches, propres et exemptes d’huile et de graisse afin de mieux maîtriser l’outil. • Maintenir une prise ferme sur l’outil, à deux mains, pour résister à tout couple de démarrage. Maintenir systématiquement l’outil fermement. • Maintenir les mains éloignées des zones de coupe dessus et dessous la base. Ne
